Imma thinking the thermal paste/TIM has just gone bad probably? I no longer have my 510 but I did repaste it when I still had mine.

Also, the heatsink mounting on the motherboard seems a bit... fragile. Worse case scenario the mounting has detached/loosened itself off the MBB and the heatsink isn't in proper contact to the TIM in the first place.

Or the tiny heat fan inside is just filled with dust ler. Which is pretty minor but still needs to be settled. If you're not comfortable with DIY just send it in to Lenovo and ask them to check.

Yes, I am using since 2018. Bought it from AliExpress for USD12.

i have removed it. initially thinking want to replace but fark it just use it naked.
previous matte SP really cause the screen quality drop due to blurriness.

normal SP and tempered glass once scratch also will affect the view.
put trust into its gorilla glass build.

Last year around October sent to Service Center to check because the battery is bloated and pushed the bottom part of the screen away from the casing.

The tech help me to remove the battery and glue back the screen for free. The tech also advise me to get the battery outside because Lenovo price is expensive. Estimated around RM350 to 400 and also need to wait as they don't have stock.

At the same time checked the fan and discovered the fan is dirty. After cleaning then no more noisy sound.

So finally I bought the replacement battery from AliExpress for USB48.75 in November 2019 and it is still working.

Btw, I changed the motherboard this year due to it intermittent unable to detect the SSD. Luckily it is still under warranty.

I also did the SSD upgrade to Samsung 970 EVO Plus 512GB in Jan this year.

i have experienced the same intermittent undetected boot device AKA the SSD and random BSOD frequently.

open up my unit, re-insert the SSD, clean the fan, reapply thermal paste, now seems ok ady.
good to hear you are under warranty. mine happen all right after warranty.

I am using tempered glass. So far so good as I hardly use the pen.

Btw, I notice the keyboard will press against the screen when closed and leaving keyboard mark on it.

How about you?

Mine the same, but less effect with matte SP.

Cannot avoid since there is no gap between the screen and keyboard when closed.

Moving forward im using it naked free. Anyway already reaching 3 years of using, condition still ok. Coding and photoshop not much issue
